Studies on very large offshore structures are increasing owing to the development of deep sea, large-scale energy generation using ocean resources, and so on. The enlargement of offshore structures makes the hydroelastic effect and low natural frequency related responses important. Numerical analyses and model tests for hydroelastic and higher-order springing responses of fixed cylindrical structures are conducted in this study. The panel methods with and without the hydroelastic effect with shell elements, and the Morison analysis method with beam elements are applied. To observe the hydroelastic effect for structural strength, two structures are considered: bottom-fixed cylindrical structures with high and low bending stiffnesses, respectively. The surge motions at the top of the structure and bending stresses on the structure are observed under regular and irregular wave conditions. The regular wave conditions are generated considering the ratios of the cylindrical outer diameter to the wave lengths, and keeping the wave steepness constant. The model tests are performed in the three-dimensional ocean engineering basin in the KRISO (Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering). From the numerical and experimental results, in which the hydroelastic responses are only observed in the case of the structure with a low bending stiffness, it is confirmed that the hydroelastic responses are highly dependent on the structural stiffness. Additionally, the higher-order phenomenon on the specified wave condition is analyzed by observing the higher-order springing responses when the incident wave frequency or its multiples with the high wave height coincides with the natural frequency of the structure.

An experimental study on a subsea installation using an offshore crane was conducted. Concrete blocks, suction piles, and manifolds were considered in this study. Free decay tests were conducted to investigate the fluid characteristics of the subsea structures. The added masses of the structures were estimated. The motion response amplitudes of the subsea structures were compared for different structures and water depths. In addition, the dynamic tension transfer function of the crane wire was investigated. The root mean square values of the heave motion and the dynamic amplification factor of the wire tension were investigated in irregular waves.

This paper presents an effective damage detection method for offshore jackets using natural frequency change ratios. Two parameters, cosine similarity and magnitude index, are considered to estimate the location and severity of the damage in the structure. A numerical jacket structure model is considered to verify the performance of the proposed method. As observed through analysis, the damages in the structure are detected accurately.

The offshore installations and ships are the structures most likely to be exposed to hazards such as hydrocarbon fire and/or explosion. Developing proactive measures to prevent the escalation of such events thus requires detailed knowledge of the related phenomena and their consequences. $CO_2$ extinguishing systems are extensively used for fire accidents of on-and offshore installations because of outstanding performance and low cost. There is, however, the risk of carbon dioxide system which enumerates many of the fatalities by suffocation associated with industrial fire protection requirements. Therefore, the aim of this study is to perform the prediction of fire suppression characteristics of the carbon dioxide system in realistic enclosed compartment area of ships and propose $CO_2$ extinguish fire fighting system for preventing suffocation accidents during fire fighting. According to CFD calculations, it can be observed and assessed that various fire profiles with $CO_2$ and $O_2$ mole fraction in the target enclosed compartment area are applicable within the proposed system. Additionally, the design of fire safety system of ships and offshore installations can utilize ventilation system and/or layout arrangement through the proposed system.

본 연구에서는 선박 또는 해양구조물에 설치되는 터렛(Turret)과 같이 제어 대상의 무게 중심 주변이 아닌 임의 지점을 운동 중심으로 선정하여 제어할 수 있는 동적위치유지(Dynamic positioning; DP)용 슬라이딩모드(Sliding mode) 제어기를 연구하였다. 이러한 슬라이딩모드 제어기는 선박 및 해양구조물 동역학 모델의 불확실성, 시공간에서 변화하는 미지의 해양환경에 의한 외력, DP 제어시스템의 과도 성능을 고려한 제어가 가능하다. 선박 및 해양구조물의 임의 지점을 기준으로 제어하기 위해 제어 대상의 기구학 방정식에 포함되는 자코비안(Jacobian) 행렬을 수정하여 슬라이딩모드 제어기를 설계하였다. 제어기의 강건성(Robustness)을 확보하기 위해 슬라이딩모드 제어기 설계에 리아프노프(Lyapunov) 안정도 판별 이론을 적용하였다. 일반적으로 DP 제어에서 제어기의 강건성 확보를 위해 PD(Proportional derivative) 제어 알고리즘 기반의 이득 스케줄링(Gain scheduling)을 사용한다. 그러나 이득 스케줄링을 적용하기 위한 적절한 이득을 찾는 것은 DP 시스템 적용을 복잡하게 만든다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이러한 선박 및 해양구조물 DP 제어기의 복잡성을 해소하기 위해 슬라이딩모드 제어 알고리즘을 고려하였다. 제안된 슬라이딩모드 제어 알고리즘의 유효성을 검증하기 위해 시간 영역 시뮬레이션을 구현하였으며, 제어 알고리즘의 성능평가에 활용되었다. 제안된 슬라이딩모드 제어기의 유효성 검토를 위해 일반적인 PD 제어 알고리즘을 적용한 DP 제어 시뮬레이션 결과와 비교하였다.

It is now well recognized that the ultimate limit state approach is a much better basis for design and strength assessment of ships and offshore structures since it is difficult to determine the realistic margin of safety using the traditional allowable working stress approach on the basis of linear elastic method solutions together with buckling strengthchecks adjusted by a simple plasticity correction. This paper outlines ALPS theory for ultimate limit state assessment of ship structures. ALPS is a computer software which stands for nonlinear Analysis of Large Plated Structures. Application examples of ALPS program to ultimate limit state assessment of plates, stiffened panels and ship hull girders are presented. A benchmark study is made by a comparison with the ALPS solutions with other methods including class rule formulae, nonlinear finite element methods and experimental results. Future trends on ultimate limit state assessment of ship structures are addresse[1]

A main goal of this study is to propose a damage detection technique to detect and localize damages of a top-tensioned riser. In this paper, the top-tensioned finite element (FE) model is considered as an analytical model of the riser, and a vibration-based damage detection method is proposed. The present method consists of a FE model updating and damage index method. In order to accomplish the goal of this study, first, a sensitivity-based FE model updating method using natural frequencies and zero frequencies is introduced. Second, natural frequencies and zero frequencies of the axial mode on the top-tensioned riser are estimated by eigenvalue analysis. Finally, the locations and severities of the damages are estimated from the damage index method. Three numerical examples are considered to verify the performance of the proposed method.

In the vibration analysis of structure in fluid such as ships and offshore structures, the hydrodynamic added mass considerably affects the result of analysis. Therefore correct evaluation of the hydrodynamic added mass effect is required for an accurate analysis. But the correct evaluation of the effect is not simple because the added mass varies with the mode shape of vibration as well as the configuration of the structure. The universal method employed to evaluate added mass in ship hull vibration is Lewis's method via the introduction of 3 dimensional correction factor. But this conventional method is valid only for beam-like vibration.

본 논문에서는 다목적 구조물인 다중연결 해양부유체를 대상으로 변형 기반 모드 차수축소법을 적용하고 차수축소모델의 구조응답 예측 성능을 향상시키기 위해 유전 알고리즘 기반의 센서 배치 최적화를 수행하였다. 다중연결 해양부유체의 차수축소모델 생성에 필요한 변형 기반 모드 데이터를 얻기 위해 다양한 규칙파랑하중조건에 대한 유체-구조 연성 수치해석을 수행하고 변형 기반 모드의 직교성, 자기상관계수를 이용하여 주요 변형 기반 모드를 선정하였다. 다중연결 해양부유체의 경우 차수축소모델의 구조응답 예측 성능이 계측 및 예측 구조응답 위치에 따라 민감하기 때문에 유전 알고리즘 기반의 최적화를 수행하여 최적의 센서 배치를 도출하였다. 최적화 결과, 모든 센서 배치 조합에 대한 차수축소모델 생성 및 예측 성능 평가 대비 약 8배의 계산 비용을 절감하였으며, 예측 성능 평가 지표인 평균 제곱근 오차가 초기 센서 배치보다 84% 감소하였다. 또한, 다중연결 해양부유체 모형시험 결과를 이용하여 불규칙파랑하중에 대한 최적화된 센서 배치의 차수축소모델의 구조응답 예측 성능을 평가 및 검증하였다.
